For the second one:

I tried to look for other examples  for iour,but I found that  ior is more common in use than the other suffix.

@Mysweetself, the reason you find more ior than iour is that the first one is the
American way of spelling and the other one is the Canadian one.
 
For example, Americans write colors, Canadians write colours.

Thank you for clearing things up... but I know that colour /color-favourite/favourit  (No Affixes included)... but with behave : behaviour/behavior ( there is a suffix) depending on the American or British writing of the word.
